This will help you if you get stuck!
Notes Before Starting
Thank you for checking out this game and for supporting Captain Disaster!
The developer is currently working on implementing Steam Achievements, but there is a system in-game that is working just fine! EDIT: As of 05/27/2020, the Steam Achievements for this game are live! They will not pop through normal play; however, they will mass-unlock as you visit the trophy room, which is found in the options. The game also takes you there automatically upon completion of the game.
This game will require 2 playthroughs to 100%. Take your time on the first playthrough, because you will need to play over three hours for an achievement. The second playthrough must be completed in less than half an hour. I was able to knock it out in about 15 minutes, so you have plenty of time.
You may find navigation a little slow. Midway through the game, there is an item that will speed things up, but there is an achievement for not using this item. There is a “game speed” slider in the options that makes everything run faster, you may want to set that to max.
